Siege weapons!
Short-range siege weapons!
Their range was much shorter than catapults, but their power and sturdiness far surpassed them. The attacks of these Silver Behemoths immediately created a gap in the Tang defense line that was impossible to fill.
”Kiiiill!” With this ringing war cry, countless Arab cavalry immediately charged through!
”Kill them!”
The Arabs had savage expressions on their faces as they poured into the Tang lines like floodwaters through a sluice gate. At this moment, the terrifying might of cavalry and the ferocity of the Arabs were fully displayed.
Bangbangbang! Tang soldiers were sent flying high into the air like ragdolls from the intense collisions. The gap in the defense line was soon home to a scene of absolute chaos. In the face of the endless Arab attacks, the gap began to widen, and chaos began to spread.
”Hold! Don't let them get in!”
”Stop them! If they get in, we'll lose!”
”Kill! Everyone, follow me!”
At this sight, all the soldiers became frantic. The shieldmen, axemen, spearmen, and mercenaries all went red in the eyes as they furiously charged into the gap. But they were too late. The tens of thousands of Arab cavalry had been charging at the first defense line for some time and they had now finally found a vent for the pent-up pressure.
”Ah!”
Screams filled the air as the soldiers were mowed down by the Arab charge. Even in death, they were still trying to charge forward, but the strength of a single individual was far too limited. Trying to stop these incessant waves of charging cavalry was like an ant trying to shake a tree.
”Iron Wall Army, get ready!”
Gao Xianzhi furiously pulled out his sword, and with his bellowed order, the four thousand soldiers of the Iron Wall Army assembled, their bodies exploding with a powerful aura as their eyes locked onto the gap.
Defeat was already taking shape and the strength of ordinary soldiers was incapable of stopping this steel flood of Arab soldiers. Only the Iron Wall Army could fill this gap.
”Move out!”
Gao Xianzhi waved his sword forward, and the determined Iron Wall Army immediately strode forward, streaking like a comet toward the gap
Clang!
When they arrived at the gap, all the Iron Wall Army soldiers pulled out their swords. The four thousand swords began to vibrate as one, creating an intimidating pressure.
”Kill them all!”
The leading Iron Wall soldier's eyes flashed cold as he swung his sword down and led his soldiers like wolves lunging at a flock of sheep into the Arab army.
Plush! His sword immediately stabbed through a horse charging, piercing through its rider and out their back. Thump! With a shake of his wrist, the Iron Wall soldier tossed aside the deceased rider and horse. The horse and rider together with their armor weighed nearly one thousand jin, but they seemed to be practically weightless as they were flung off the soldier's sword and into a group of Arab cavalry.
Boom!
After killing the first Arab horseman, the Iron Wall soldier strode forward and stabbed through a second horseman. Boom! Boom! Boom! The Iron Wall soldier confidently strode forward, his every step firm and determined. Squelch! Blood gushed out around this Iron Wall soldier, each of his blows mowing down the Arab cavalry like weeds.
Despite all the Arab cavalry present, not a single one was able to stop this Iron Wall soldier.
Boomboomboom!
The four thousand soldiers of the Iron Wall Army used this method to advance unstoppably through the Arab army, carving a bloody path.
